Weekly Photo Challenge: Dance

location: Gorna Oryahovitsa, Bulgaria
During a visit to Bulgaria, it was a delight to bear witness to the country’s growing interest in reviving ethnic and traditional folk dancing.
One evening, we received an invitation to watch the dress rehearsal of a Bulgarian folk dance ensemble in Gorna Oryahovitsa, a town 140 miles from the capital of Sofia, in Northern Bulgaria.
Although there were only 14 of us in the audience, all from the United States, they treated us with a great performance. It was a night to remember and one of the highlights of the trip.
